After Completing His Mission in the Second Sequel 'DUNE', Here Are 3 Recommended Films Directed by Denis Villeneuve! Denis Villeneuve (credit: © 2015 Lionsgate & © 2016 - Warner Bros.)

Kapanlagi.com - Written by: Nadia Sabilla Ramadhani

After his latest film skyrocketed and received the highest ratings, Denis Villeneuve as a director always presents truly extraordinary films with big themes that challenge logic. His work in the film industry is unquestionable. He has won 13 awards in various categories at several of his films. So it's no wonder that the sequel to the film DUNE has received tremendous attention since its release.

Released on February 28, 2024, DUNE: PART TWO received a rating of 9/10 on IMDb (Internet Movie Database). A score that is almost perfect in the film industry and a record for the director, Denis Villeneuve.

Denis also admitted that he is a big fan of the legendary director Christopher Nolan, who directs the story of OPPENHEIMER, INTERSTELLAR, and many other sci-fi films that require focus in every storyline. Here are some film recommendations from Denis Villeneuve that you must watch, KLovers!

1. 'ARRIVAL' (2016)

As the title suggests, 'Arrival' is not a typical arrival. Aliens suddenly appear in 12 different locations around the world, with Montana being one of the places where they land. Unlike other alien stories that involve invasion, Denis takes a different approach in this film by focusing on how they communicate and the language used by the aliens.

The story has a non-linear narrative and is slightly confusing at the beginning. Not only the narrative, but the language used by the aliens is also quite unique, leaving the audience puzzled. Only Louise Banks (Amy Adams), a linguistics expert, can understand their language. Additionally, there is a dramatic scene where Louise uses a whiteboard with the word 'HUMAN' written on it to communicate with the aliens.

2. ‘BLADE RUNNER 2049’ (2017)

This film is a must-watch sci-fi! BLADE RUNNER 2049 is a continuation of the first BLADE RUNNER released in 1982. It is far enough to create a sequel with a gap of approximately 3 decades. However, Denis makes the story appear epic by bringing in several veteran characters to rebuild this story with a new version.

It tells the story of technological advancements, where humans coexist with artificial humans or replicants. Like two sides of a coin, technological progress also has its good and bad impacts. This story is packed with theories and drama.

3. ‘INCENDIES’ (2010)

Different genre from the above two films, INCENDIES tells the story of a very complicated family. Twin siblings searching for the truth about their long-lost brother and father.

A plot twist is always present in every Denis Villeneuve film. We are left stunned after finding out who their father and biological brother, whom they have been searching for all this time, really are. As they know, they only have each other because they are twins. Their late mother left a very confusing will. This story should be on your watchlist, KLovers!

Those are the three masterpiece films by Denis Villeneuve. Interested in watching, KLovers?
